Mario Comensoli is regarded as one of the most important Swiss painters of realism. His motifs were always related to the current social circumstances, particularly their peripheral figures. They are exemplary and focused on the essentials. The work presented here depicts a fruit still life in a white bowl, which obtains an effective contrast in front of the dark background.
The paper is signed lower left ‘Comensoli’ and is in very good original condition. The paper measures 55.5 x 42.5 cm. The framed dimensions are 57 x 37.5 cm.
Mario Comensoli (1922-1993)

He was educated autodidactically at first, and subsequently received a scholarship at the Fondazione Torricelli, which enabled him to study at the Kunstgewerbeschule and the ETH Zurich. His first painting was purchased by the Museo Civico in Lugano. In the late 1940s Comensoli spent some time in Paris, where he made acquaintance with Alberto Giacometti, Serge Poliakoff, Miró and André Fougeron. He further held numerous exhibitions, among others at the Helmhaus Zurich, the Museo Civico Lugano, the Kunsthaus Zurich and the Kunstverein St. Gallen as well as the Galleria S. Lucia, Rome and others.
